Loudness Pilot will help you deliver great-
sounding, loudness compliant audio experi-
ences to your listeners.
Loudness Pilot is the perfect solution for broad-
cast stations that need hassle-free mono and
stereo loudness control. It can handle multiple
TV channels or languages, or simultaneous de-
livery to multiple independent platforms – for in-
stance TV and mobile.
In other words: Loudness Pilot is the loudness
solution for local and regional broadcasters –
cost-effective, easy-to-use and tailored for ste-
reo.
Perfect loudness management
for Stereo and Mono
Busy regional and local broadcasters will find
peace of mind with this unit that is fully compli-
ant with all major loudness and broadcast stan-
dards. It even includes the option to add TC
Electronic’s renowned Radar Meter as a sepa-
rate license – see “LM2 (optional)” on page 96
and “Extending your product’s capabilities with
optional licenses” on page 121.
Loudness Pilot combines uncompromising au-
dio processing with a competitive price that puts
unparalleled audio quality within the reach of all
users.
Ultra-low latency –
ultra-high redundancy
Loudness Pilot is the very best loudness-cor-
rection technology packed into an easy-to-use,
dual-stereo or dual-mono form offering excep-
tionally low latency and very flexible routing
possibilities. And it comes packed with dual re-
dundancy features. Your signal will never be in
jeopardy with dual power inputs, dual fuses, dual
fans and a Relay Bypass feature on both the SDI
and AES versions.
Comply with loudness standards
TC Electronic has been listened to by those ac-
tively setting broadcast standards. We have even
donated our technology to many of the same
international bodies that impact your broadcast
work.
Legislation on loudness in television is constant-
ly evolving. However, with Loudness Pilot we will
always help you remain compliant with the latest
revision of the broadcast standards that impact
your work.
Targeted On Your Tasks
We have focused this unit on the areas most rel-
evant to regional and local broadcast stations
working with stereo SDI.
This means that you now have a single, fit-for-
purpose tool ready to delivering either two lan-
guages simultaneously or to two different plat-
forms, such as TV and mobile.
